Sure.
First my input:

When I run this small script to fix the irq issue, I see that also the
stream of ^@^@^@ stops (or at least appears to do so), when those ^@^@^@
were active:

service motion stop
rmmod pwc
echo 0000:00:13.0 >/sys/bus/pci/drivers/ohci_hcd/unbind
echo 0000:00:13.0 >/sys/bus/pci/drivers/ohci_hcd/bind
modprobe pwc
service motion start

I'll look into these!

Currently it does. But I must see what happens when all is quiet, and
the problem reappears, right?
